The extra evening hour we ‘got’ last weekend when daylight saving time moved our clocks one hour forward (although factually an hour was taken from us!), had the impact it was intended for; when I drove back home tonight around 7pm, the sun was still way up over the hills around the house and from inside the car it looked like summer is around the corner! Weather wasn’t that good really, only +2 degrees and even some wet snow just 10 minutes before… 😉

Today exactly six years ago, March 28 2004, I arrived in Japan for an experience of a lifetime; 4 weeks with 5 amazing people on a trip through a culture that is so different and so interesting that it became a life changing event!

We summed the experience up in the recipe below (as put on our website, gse2004.nl):

The Formula One‘ circus has landed in sunny Australia this weekend. As always, the time difference is challenging, although that never stopped me to watch it live in the past years! 😉

This particular Grand Prix race is always a bit special for me since I *was* in Australia 16 years ago, unfortunately just missed the race by one week, but I still saw the city getting ready for the event (still Adelaide in those days), nice!

Adam, thx! It was great to listen to last Friday’s DSC, the FUBAR Friday festivities led up to a perfect atmosphere for a welcome back to ‘Charlie’ mood!

The one year, six weeks, six days and 13 hours between this show and the last one is washed away, diminished into the ‘days between shows’ that we were used to…amazing how flexible time is and how easy it really is to get back into the vibe!

The DSC#781 ‘Awakening’ piece (excellently edited by ‘Ray On The Charlie’) was a superb run down memory lane and wake-up from snooze moment for some I believe.

For those of you wondering what this ‘secret’ language codes all means; I’d say, take a listen and get on board!! 😉

I just finished listening to episode 182 of the No Agenda podcast (aka Open Source Radio Show), so I’m totally up to date with the real news behind the mainstream media controlled news! 😉

And, I’m just in time to be ready for Adam’s‘Daily’ Source Code this week…yeah, that’s right, the show is coming back as promised, and this is gonna be THE week, great! As Adam mentioned on my Facebook page a month ago; patience is a virtue… 😉

I’m interested to hear what direction the show will take…the last episodes (over a year ago) were a prelude for the No Agenda topics (totally awesome). I wonder how regular the DSC will be, I expect it could become ‘almost’ daily again if only Adam would get his ‘Delta Sierra‘ sold, hehe. 😉

So, if you’re in the market for an airplane (the comment says ‘Beautiful 182RG !!! Owner has spared no expense in maintaining this aircraft!’), check out this link on tradewinds.com.

Work this week is totally crazy! I don’t mind working hard at all, I love what I do so no probs there. But to be in the office for 31 hours in just two days (!) is a bit too much in my book…besides the regular things to take care of, most of the time went into making travel expense reports. Obviously I was behind on making them…oh well, the good part is that I will soon be a rich man! 😉

Note to self; do these reports on a more regular basis and, don’t blame the system. 😉

The lazy Saturday is followed by a not so lazy Sunday; I finished the IKEA fun stuff and it looks good; the stereo-set fits nicely, the TV finally hangs on the wall and all the cables are hidden…job well done!

I just paid some invoices, so the administration is also up to date and with that it is time to zzzzz, another busy week is coming up (hmm, Kissy will fly to New York, some seem to have *all* the fun! 😉 )

Mirror.co.uk: “Desperate road safety chiefs in Romania have put up traffic signs warning motorists of drunk pedestrians. Following an increase in traffic accidents involving drunks stumbling into the road the Mayor Petru Antal ordered the signs saying ‘Attention – Drunks’ complete with an image of a reveller on his knees with a bottle.”

“We are a border town and have lots of cars thundering through here all the time…But we also have a very vibrant nightlife and the two don’t mix. We have to target the drivers because by the time they get to this state the pedestrians are beyond caring.”
